cryptnix Posted August 26, 2004 Report Posted August 26, 2004 if i were to find a 3400 motor would everything bolt up along with using my current trans? Quote
White93z34 Posted August 26, 2004 Report Posted August 26, 2004 might have to change out the chip in the computer but that should be about it Quote
sl3196 Posted August 26, 2004 Report Posted August 26, 2004 The 3400 uses the 4T45 trans I think. Quote
digitaloutsider Posted August 26, 2004 Report Posted August 26, 2004 The 3400 uses the 4T45 trans I think. In the Grand Am's and such. For a more direct swap, you'd need the 3400 and tranny out of a U-van. They use the 4T65e. Quote
jeremy Posted August 26, 2004 Report Posted August 26, 2004 here is a link to the best write up on the 3100 to 3400 swap that you will probably find......... http://60degreev6.com/SwapGuides/1995%20Pontiac%20Grand%20Am%20GT%20Swap%20Version%202.0.pdf Quote
dsgrntld187 Posted August 27, 2004 Report Posted August 27, 2004 Pretty much everything would drop right in. All the sensors from the 3100 would have to be put in the 3400. If I do any form of swap, this is the one I'm doing for money reasons. Quote
EurosportZ34 Posted August 27, 2004 Report Posted August 27, 2004 As I take it the 3400 is just a big 3100. Quote
dsgrntld187 Posted August 27, 2004 Report Posted August 27, 2004 3400 is just a bored out 3100, isnt it? and the newer 3100 was basically a 3400? Quote
slick Posted August 27, 2004 Report Posted August 27, 2004 3400 is just a bored out 3100, isnt it? and the newer 3100 was basically a 3400? It's bored over. Bigger stroke. Better flowing heads and manifolds. Better cam. Hell, the whole engine is better. Quote
cryptnix Posted August 27, 2004 Author Report Posted August 27, 2004 interesting ... i'll likely purchase a rebuild kit for her. there aren't any cam upgrades for this motor is there? or even rockers? Quote
slick Posted August 27, 2004 Report Posted August 27, 2004 Cam, no. Rockers, I think it's possible, but you would have to custom grind your own guideplates. Quote
Robby1870 Posted August 27, 2004 Report Posted August 27, 2004 3400 is just a bored out 3100, isnt it? and the newer 3100 was basically a 3400? It's bored over. Bigger stroke. Better flowing heads and manifolds. Better cam. Hell, the whole engine is better. Not longer stroke. 3400 is the same 84mm stroke as 3.1/3100 Bore is 92mm opposed to 89mm on 3.1/3100 Quote
dsgrntld187 Posted August 27, 2004 Report Posted August 27, 2004 I saw a Cam upgrade in Summit I thought from either Edelbrock or someone.. I dunno. Comp Cams, that was it. Quote
rudefyet Posted August 27, 2004 Report Posted August 27, 2004 2000+ 3100s got the same heads as 3400s Quote
cryptnix Posted August 27, 2004 Author Report Posted August 27, 2004 are these possible to swap? Quote
dsgrntld187 Posted August 27, 2004 Report Posted August 27, 2004 3400 into a 3100 car? Yes. a newer 3100 into a older 3100 car? No, I don't think so. Quote
rudefyet Posted August 27, 2004 Report Posted August 27, 2004 yes you can put the 3400 heads on a 3100 if thats what your asking... another sidenote 96+ 3100's and all 3400's get roller rocker arms..i think Quote
cryptnix Posted August 27, 2004 Author Report Posted August 27, 2004 as you can see i know nothing about my motor ... mostly the 3800 is what i'm trying to learn ... sadly i was opt to get it a few months back but ... decided not but honestly i'd wish you folks could point me in the direction of informative sites for my motor ... BESIDES 60degreeV6 ... I hate that site to damn old looking and too damn shitty of choice for colors. Quote
sl3196 Posted August 27, 2004 Report Posted August 27, 2004 60v6 has good info on the 3100/3400 just don't talk about the l67 at all. You need to make up your damn mind what the fuck you want to do. Every week you change it to something new! Quote
cryptnix Posted August 27, 2004 Author Report Posted August 27, 2004 well, if i can find out why it is she's sputtering i wont do a damn thing except waste money on little mods and call it good more and more i am starting to lose interest in anything with learning anything about cars cause its just seriously a waste of time for me currently. which is why its making me change my mind so much. whenever i start my car in the morning she runs fine until it gets to temp then it starts to sputter as i get up in speed ... just alot of stuff going on currently and the last thing i want to worry about is my fuckin car to blow up. i hardly EVER get on it except when I am getting on the freeway or ... just wanting to have fun with it. no sense in beating on my freakin daily driver. just been having a bad year this year ...

sl3196 Posted August 27, 2004 Report Posted August 27, 2004 Should have gave you my 3100 before I got rid of it. Ran like a champ! Quote
93CutlassSupreme Posted August 27, 2004 Report Posted August 27, 2004 Should have gave you my 3100 before I got rid of it. Ran like a champ! kinda like those 5 spoke CS wheels that you got rid of? Quote
Vegeta Posted August 27, 2004 Report Posted August 27, 2004 Well after reading this thread, its your loss for not looking at the 60v6 site for info. I guess you can go to phoenix.60degreev6.com and read whatever we have put up there so far since we are working on a new layout...and its very early on in the process. Quote
White93z34 Posted August 27, 2004 Report Posted August 27, 2004 theres always http://www.3400swap.com but last i checked their account was suspended. never head of someone turning down a hige knoledge base b/c of the colors it had :? Quote
GutlessSupreme Posted August 27, 2004 Report Posted August 27, 2004 turbo 3400 five speed swap time. eh? EEH??? Quote
